This paper proposes a speci.cation test of the mixed logit models, by generalizing Haus- man and McFadden.s (1984) test. We generalize the test even further by considering a model developed by Berry, Levinsohn and Pakes (1995).

We examine properties of permutation tests in the context of synthetic control. Permutation tests are frequently used methods of inference for synthetic control when the number of potential control units is small. We analyze the permutation tests from a repeated sampling perspective and show...
